I'm still coming to terms with the leg-end, Mark E. Smith.
Hard AF kept performing to the end.. here's his last stage entrance.
Go fuck yourself cancer!

He could still snarl, even looking death in the face.
"massive retard™", "full of shit™", "tiny bitch™", "retarted™", "a bit of a one trick pony™", "petty™", "simple minded idealistic twat™", "miserable humourless fucker™"
Re: RIP Thread
Was sad about David Bellamy yesterday and yeah, I am still sad about MES. If anything more so now than before, I think because over time the realisation that there will never be any new Fall has sunk in more & more.
I was watching clips of them on The Tube the other day, unusual seeing an interview with a younger, totally lucid version of himself.
Cheers for posting that clip, I'd not seen it but it made me smile and a little sad at the same time.

Re: RIP Thread
I know the interview you mean!
Was moved by the clip too, and he was rapturously and gloriously received by the audience! He had fighting spirit to the end, and in true M.E.S. style even joked with the audience.
Still feel like I'm waiting for the next LP..

Sad news. I loved some of the stories he told over the years.

My ye olde CD collection is full of his work.(o)(o) wrote:Vaughan Oliver.
I guess it does sound art-wanky, but his design work helped to set a mood with a lot of that stuff for me back in the day, especially the Cocteaus/DCD/ Mortal Coil albums. Felt like a gateway to other places, other worlds, in a way that you don't get with random-streaming.
So yeah, RIP Mr Oliver.
And in an entirely different mood RIP Neil Innes as well. The cheery/clever/absurd comedy Yang to my mopey-goth 4AD Yin, back in the 80s.
